- Reviews the association between traditional masculine norms and sexual violence perpetration
- Discusses international sexual assault prevention programs that engage boys and men
- Highlight how aspects of hypermasculinity strongly correlate with sexual aggression
- Provides an overview of research that examines risk factors for sexual aggression
